Heart Of The Matter
Just Listen To The Rain
I just listen to the rain,
Its beat steady,
It's falling hard,
I can hear it,
I am ready,
And I'm covered,
In a blanket,
Keeps me warm,
When life is cold,
And ticking is the second hand,
Time is growing old,
The moments lost to memory,
A keepsake for the few,
I just lie, and listen to the rain,
When there's no more,
I can do.
